How good is John Buck? I've been told that the catcher we got from Dickey is a top prospect. Will he remain in the minors for this season?

Buck will be a 1 year Met. The catcher is Travis d'Arnaud and he is indeed one of the best prospects in the game. If all goes according to plan he should be up by June. At that point depending on how Buck is playing they'll either split time or maybe look to deal Buck.

He isn't a Gold Glover defensively, but he CAN develop into an adequate 3b. And with his bat potential, he can definitely be among the best in majors at that PREMIUM position. And yes, I do consider 3b a premium position, there really isn't all that many good ones around MLB (you always have to draft them early in Fantasy Drafts).

And if that's not enough, how about Wilmer's contact rate? He doesn't K, at all. How many power hitters you can say that about?

Well he never showed power until last year but people are down on him strictly because of defense. His bat doesn't profile well enough to play 1B and he's really going to have to prove he can be at least average at 3B or 2B. If he's a 3B then he's never playing for us.

Yeah, but that doesn't make sense.

He was a top 100 prospect when was just a raw teenager. And then, when he had a big breakout season, none of the BA writers put him in their top 150.

Again it's because if he's playing 1B he's not really a big time prospect. His bat at SS or 3B would be much better and he's have been rated higher. Most don't think he'd be able to handle 3B at the major league level. Alos, when you've been on the radar for so long people get tired of you. They like the shiny new toy. I think he can be at least as good as Uggla at 2B so he may displace Murphy if his bat continues to be as good as it has been.

I think Aderlin jumps onto the national scene big time this year. Top 100 guy by the end of year. Puello suck and I have no hope for him. DC I like a lot. If he stays healthy I expect very good things.
